Calculate the value of δs when 64.0 g of ga(l) solidifies at 29.8 ∘c.
1 answer:
The variation of entropy of a substance is given by
(1)
where
is the heat exchanged in the process
T is the absolute temperature at which the transformation occurs.
The process in the problem is the solidification of the liquid Gallium, which releases an amount of heat equal to:
where m is the mass of the substance and
is the latent heat of fusion of Gallium. Using m=64.0 g, we find
where the negative sign means the Gallium is releasing heat to the environment.
Now we can use equation (1) to find the variation of entropy, but first we need to convert the temperature into Kelvin:
And so the variation of entropy is
and the negative sign means the entropy in the process is decreasing.

Answer:
According to the data given in the question, experiment on table two pulling and falling masses are arranged in the fig. 250 g is pulling right side and 100 g pulling down. The gravitational force is common to both the masses, so we cannot say that the block moves towards heavier mass, also the block does not move towards the lighter mass.
Obviously, the effect of heavier mass of 250 g is more on the block, so the block moves towards right bottom corner. i.e., diagonally between two masses
